  1. Dear Mr Pakman, Thanks for a great show David. You're coverage of the election will be thrilling to watch. As someone living in a European country, hospital costs are high here as well, but it is a crime that somebody in your country would have to pay north of 13 hundred dollars for a blood test. We know costs are up, but your bill points to the fact that for any country in the world not to have complete coverage for every citizen is an insult to our humaneness, it is an abomination that our beloved or hated economic system has thrust upon us. Top health care should be guaranteed in some kind of world constitution. No one seems to realize that many people wake up in the morning with 5 dollars being all they have to get through the day, let alone get food or medication or pay their rent or give their kids a school lunch. We're lost as a civilization if we don't ensure everyone having the same rights. By the way, ticks don't walk or fly, they tick... tick... tick and then drill into you to give you their blood test and if successful they leave you with a disease that will cost a fortune to cure. Don't be ticked off, I was joking!
